Tyranid Warriors

The Tyranid Warrior (Tyranicus gladius) is one of the most common type of bioforms used by a Tyranid swarm. As Tyranids are constantly biologically adapting their forces to match their enemies’ shifting strategies, Tyranid Warriors are often seen in combat in many different sub-species intended for different battlefield and tactical functions. Tyranid Warriors are among the most important Tyranid bioforms deployed by a hive fleet in battle, as not only are they powerful and deadly creatures in their own right, but they also serve as Tyranid synapse creatures, the important bioforms intended to direct lesser Tyranid bioforms and forming the focal points of the Tyranid Hive Mind’s system of telepathic command.
